Hello-Lucy

@Mykle1 In general the only reason I still use Windows is because Autodesk still does not have linux versions for the CAD software lol
-
@Mykle1 just took a cooler from a old PCB I had laying around and some thermal compound. saved me 25 degree

I’m not suggesting that you abandon Windows. I still have my Windows machine, too. I mean where MM is concerned. Do you need to have Autodesk and the CAD software running with MM?

@mykle1 ah no I mean in general. I wanted to drop windows already for months ;) But since I need the CAD software I can’t lol maybe I will go over to linux and put windows into a VM just for CAD Software

Well today I got a pi b+ into my hands and tested it right away. Well sadly there is no improvement at all. The video still runs smooth which I expected, however there is still 83% cpu load while playing it. Will give it a cooler and do not show it a lot of the time anyways so I guess I should be fine anyways
-
Were you expecting the Pi to perform like a desktop or laptop board? That’s just crazy. ;-)

@Mykle1 well your desktop has a gpu but a not a better cpu and ram is not used ;)
And yes expected a slightly better performance given the 17% more cpu speed. However I will just stop playing video files in electron which kills my cpu (83%).
So I tried I different way to show the video. I used magic mirror like I would normalways but the video I did not show in electron, but opened omxplayer to blend the video in.
I tested using top. It shows cpu usage for all cores so don’t wonder about numbers over 100%With the video on electron using a magic mirror module my cpu usage was at stable 250-260%. Using the omxplayer to show the video and showing the rest like I did the first time the CPU usage was different each time. It was always either in the 20% area or in the 150%. So it is a enormous improvement to the first option and makes it definetly possible to play it on a raspberry pi 3b ;)

Uhh, you lost me.

That is excellent news for those employing Hello-Lucy without the animated gif. Well done!
